Abstract :
Achalasia is a neurodegenerative disorder of the lower oesophageal sphincter which occurs rarely in children when compared to adults. These children present with progressive dysphagia, cough, recurrent vomiting, regurgitation of feeds, failure to thrive or weight loss. Here we present our experience in a 7yr old boy with achalasia cardia with typical symptoms and imaging findings. He was successfully managed with pneumatic dilatation.
